Oh wow, so Techland might just be back at it with another Call of Juarez game. Remember those? Back in the Xbox 360 and PS3 days — feels like ages ago, right? Anyway, this Western shooter series wasn’t exactly a household name, but it had its charm. Four games since 2006, last one popped out in 2013. Guess what? In 2018, Techland snatched the rights back from Ubisoft. Wild.
So, here’s a kicker. Techland’s not just about reviving old games. Apparently, the studio’s scratched two secret projects. One of them was this Star Wars-esque fantasy RPG, “Project Cornerstone.” The other? Who knows. It’s like losing socks; gone forever. But hey, silver lining, folks! They’ve got Dying Light: The Beast launching this summer. What started as a little add-on for 2022’s Stay Human practically became its own beast. Pun definitely intended.
The scoop from Insider Gaming? Call of Juarez is getting a fresh coat of paint — this time using Unreal Engine 5, not whatever Techland brewed in their Chrome Engine lab before. Could it be a sequel? A full-blown reboot? Too early to tell. I get the feeling that fans wouldn’t mind some kind of remastered collection. You know, nostalgia trip much?
And even if this all feels a bit vague for now, you could imagine Techland’s planning some grand reveal. Maybe they’ll show up at The Game Awards in December, waving their new creation like a trophy. Or not. These things have a funny way of sneaking up on you. Guess we’ll just have to hang tight and see what they cook up next. Isn’t it all kind of exciting?
